The ContentConnect is a virtual server application and a critical component of the Polycom RealConnect for Skype for Business solution as it handles contents shared across Skype for Business users and traditional videoconference systems. This innovative approach makes the whole video collaboration experience easy and consistent, which drives user adoption.

The Polycom ContentConnect works in conjunction with other RealPresence Platform solutions and delivers:

High quality, bi-directional content among Skype for Business/Lync users and standards-based video endpoints

Content displayed in the proper content stage area for best experience

Polycom ContentConnect is a virtual appliance that enables bi-directional content sharing between Skype for Business users and standards-based video solutions. Skype for Business users, including federated Skype for Business or Office 365 online users, are able to share high quality content with non-Skype for Business video endpoints.

Customers may purchase the ContentConnect license or subscribe to the RealPresence One with Microsoft Lync option.

Polycom ContentConnect supports Microsoft Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) and transcodes it so that H.323 and SIP video endpoints can receive dual stream contents (BFCP or H.239). Content sent to Skype for Business clients is displayed in the proper content stage in high resolution.
